Spider-Man: Brand New Day featurette reveals Tom Holland's first day on set

Sony Pictures has released the first official 'Day One' featurette for Spider-Man: Brand New Day, offering fans a behind-the-scenes glimpse at Tom Holland's return as Marvel's iconic web-slinger. Filmed on location in Glasgow, Scotland, the footage captures Holland's first day on set for his fourth solo MCU Spider-Man film. The featurette shows Holland in action, including scenes of Spider-Man attempting to break into an armored vehicle bearing a mysterious demon-like logo. Director Destin Daniel Cretton can be seen guiding the action, with speculation mounting that the logo may hint at connections to The Punisher, Mephisto, The Hand, or Mister Negative's Inner Demons. Day one back in the suit. The story continues with #SpiderManBrandNewDay - in theatres 7.31.26 — Spider-Man Movie (@SpiderManMovie) August 10, 2025 In the video, Holland reflects on his new approach to the role, noting, 'Putting the suit on, it feels different this time… Hopefully get it right. No pressure.' Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige has hinted that this will be Holland's first time portraying the 'classic' version of Spider-Man on screen. While the film shares its title with the controversial Brand New Day comic book era—where Spider-Man's marriage to Mary Jane was erased via a deal with Mephisto—the storyline here is expected to focus on Spidey teaming up with The Punisher to battle a Savage Hulk, with The Scorpion also rumored to appear. The cast includes Jon Bernthal, Mark Ruffalo, Zendaya, Sadie Sink, Michael Mando, and Liza Colón-Zayas. Spider-Man: Brand New Day is set for a theatrical release on July 31, 2026.

Joe Keery tipped to join MCU as Harry Osborn in 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day'

Actor Joe Keery is reportedly in talks to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Harry Osborn in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, the fourth MCU instalment in the Spider-Man series starring Tom Holland. If confirmed, this would be the first time Harry Osborn appears in the MCU. While the character is a central figure in Spider-Man's long-running comic history and has featured in previous live-action adaptations, he has been absent from Holland's Spider-Man films to date. Spider-Man: Brand New Day is expected to represent a narrative reset for the hero and his cinematic journey. Reports indicate the film could draw from the 'Brand New Day' comic arc, which redefined Peter Parker's personal and superhero life. In that storyline, Harry Osborn's role was pivotal, hinting that Keery's potential casting could signal a significant character arc. The character of Harry Osborn has historically been portrayed as Peter Parker's best friend, with complicated ties to the Osborn family legacy and the villainous Green Goblin. Additional rumours surrounding the project suggest actress Sadie Sink may also appear in an undisclosed role, further fuelling speculation about the film's ensemble. Marvel Studios has not officially confirmed Keery's involvement. Fans and industry watchers alike will be awaiting announcements as production progresses.

Jeff Probst explains Mike White's return for Survivor 50 and addresses White Lotus cameo speculation

Jeff Probst has explained why The White Lotus creator Mike White is returning for the 50th season of Survivor. The host and executive producer admitted he anticipated attention around White's casting, but was still 'a little surprised' at the reaction when CBS announced the line-up. Probst told The Hollywood Reporter that White's return is notable because 'there is no hiding that he is the biggest writer, director, show creator in the world right now, and he wanted to come back and play Survivor.' He believes the interest lies in White's study of human behaviour, which influences his television work. White first competed in season 37, David vs. Goliath, in 2018, finishing as runner-up before The White Lotus premiered. For season 50, airing spring 2026, he will face other returning players, including former winners and fellow second-place finishers. Probst said White wanted to test how success in Hollywood might affect his gameplay, asking, 'Now that everybody is more aware of me… how will I fare?' The host expects it will be 'fun' to watch how other contestants interact with him, given his track record of inviting past players to cameo in The White Lotus. Asked if he would appear in White's HBO series, Probst declined, saying, 'No, Mike should never put me on White Lotus,' though he praised White's generosity in offering Survivor alumni the opportunity to visit and appear on set. White has previously joked that Probst would avoid casting him again after seeing him reach the finals. Probst said White's persistence and public campaign ultimately led to his return, adding that he is 'so grateful' to have him back. 'He's arguably the single best storyteller we've ever had on Survivor,' Probst said, calling White 'authentic' and 'one of the best of all time.'
